I bought my somewhat high-end PC in late 2025, two months before RAMageddon. Two people advised me against it. They said it wasn't a good time to buy because prices were already a bit high. I'm glad I didn't follow their advice.

I bought my machine a week before the true ramocalypse. Prices were high, and 128GB of RAM was like 30% of my budget already, but literally the following week prices rose to the point that I would not have been able to afford any of that
